Looks like Nintendo might be getting ready for something big. Rumors say around 380,000 Switch 2 units were shipped to North America in January 2025.
With Nintendo’s big presentation set for April 2nd, fans are expecting major updates.
Let’s explore the latest developments surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2.
Emerging Rumors on Early Shipments
Recent reports suggest that Nintendo has already transported a significant number of Switch 2 units to North America.
According to Famiboards member LiC, shipment records indicate that approximately 383,000 fully assembled consoles were delivered between January 17th and 22nd, 2025. Alongside these, around 41,598 charging grips were also included in the shipments.
These figures suggest that HVBG may possess at least 1.7 million additional components, such as Switch 2 screens, potentially indicating a substantial pre-launch stockpile.
This information, later shared by Reddit user u/Icy-ConcentrationC has intensified speculation surrounding the console’s potential release.
It’s important to approach these figures with caution. However, the Famiboards member says they got their hands on shipment data from the Vietnamese manufacturer HVBG. They claim to have spotted numbers related to Nintendo, but there’s no official word to back it up. That means we can’t be sure if the info is accurate.
Plus, just because something gets shipped doesn’t mean it’s hitting shelves right away. These shipments could be part of bigger plans that take time to unfold.
